Sunflowers

After taking many, many photographs of flowers and gardens in the last three months, it seemed like time to experiment with the images. I chose sunflowers first of all for their positive in your face colour and form and manipulated them in Adobe Photoshop Elements, cropping, layering and changing colour.

I began with photos of whole flowers, first of all removing the extra leaves and stalks to give a cleaner image, using layer via copy.












Next, I cropped out and selected small sections and filled them with colour.
Then I played further (lots of images developed, some more pleasing than others) and layered the results one over another, abstracting further as I went.
And now to decide where to go next!
